In web development, the technical term for those popup menus with multiple columns and headings inside is a "mega menu" and I just added one to PieFed. It unifies the topics and feeds menus into one.
It only works on a tablet or larger.
What do you think?

The pace of development of Piefed really is something to behold! I like the new menu structure with communities at the top, but I know others would prefer feeds there, and frankly either is good. However, could we get the mega menu as a separate page too, so I can bookmark it?

Feeds are first now

Thank you! I love that you list the comms we moderate first.

It's better than before, but I think there needs to be a way to favorite feeds or communities to show up at the top. I'm subscribed to maybe 100+ communities, so the list is MASSIVE to scroll through.

I mean it's better but uhm. I would rather have a quick search like when you post to a community implemented than trying to find something specific in this big list.

Oh and Feeds are now all the way down so I have to scroll a lot to gt to them, that kind of defies the purpose a bit for me who is using them as a filter.

Good feedback, thanks.
Moving feeds up and adding a search is doable

Yeah, for me too - I'd rather have feeds on top.
I'm following so many communities the list is really useless unless I use Ctrl+F. For users like me it would make more sense to collapse the list of communities unless I ask to see it.
Then again, I brought this on myself.
I really like that instance is now added to communities with the same name!

It would be nice to have all my feeds on top.

They moved to Explore in version 1.2
PieFed.zip has it since a while, it's quite nice

is piefed.zip running some experimental implementation?
Blaze@lemmy.zip · 2 pts · 340d
It runs the development version, like https://crust.piefed.social/ does
PieFed.social runs the stable version

I can't see feeds at all, just topics which are way down the bottom.

For me, this is beautiful because thanks to the many rows, we can access more stuff in just one click.
I don't know how anyone would feel about the following, nor how easy or difficult it would be to implement something like that, but I'll say it anyways. I was wondering if we could somehow access all these in one click, instead of two. Meaning, what if these lists were on the sidebar? Or perhaps create a new, narrower sidebar on the left side? Possibly, them having the option to collapse as well?
Just some thoughts and thank you for everything.
